Pokemon Stadium 2: Prima's Official Strategy Guide

Rating:
Summary: Destroys the Meaning!
Review: I have to start out by saying that I am not impressed. Basically, a lot of this book just repeates stuff that the game already tells you. Other than that, it tells you specifically what Pokemon to use! The whole point of being a "Pokemon trainer" is to assemble teams that suit you, not the game! If all you care about is beating the game, then this is very helpful (which is why I rated it three stars). But if you enjoy trying out different teams or beating the game with your just your favorite Pokemon, then this is not for you.

Summary: pokemon stadium 2 Official Nintendo Player's Guide
Review: ok, i have to vent somewhere. this is a review for the "official nintendo player's guide," not "prima's official guide," which this is supposed to be a review for. since it's out of print, i can't review it directly, but it is for sale in the z-shops area, or whatever it's called. anyway, these 2 books have the exact same picture on the cover, just different title/text. who knows about the interior. but the one i'm talking about is pure garbage. half the team combos they suggest are bad match-ups. thye could be good, but it's a 50-50 coin toss over half the time. the only reliable part is the classroom competition recommendations. about 1/2 the rest is REALLY bad. a decent player could have written a better book. the writers should be lynched, and i really hope they read this. i would give it 2 stars, because the classroom strategies work, but that should be a given...the bare minimum to even be considered for a rating. so i give it more than it deserves...a 1. please don't waste your time with this book, unless you're looking for a quick route to the crazy farm. if you're serious about using the book for its intended purpose, this horrid book will drive you insane!!
